Kolb, R-Canandaigua, took offense to comments Letterman made Monday about the daughter of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

Letterman joked about Palin having a hard time keeping former Gov. Eliot Spitzer away from her daughter and made a crack about a Palin girl being "knocked up" by Yankee player Alex Rodriguez.

"That Mr. Letterman thought it somehow acceptable to make light of the serious crime of statutory rape and demean the 14-year-old daughter of a sitting governor whose family was visiting our state is outrageous," Kolb said.

A Kolb aide said the Assemblyman got involved, in part, because Palin had recently visited Auburn and CBS studios are located in New York City.
